can you post a picture of it or a good description?

 

[welddigger]

That is a good question......What color??????? I don't see any color!!!

 

[capsoda]

That is an odd one but common. What size is it?

 

[bottlenutboy]

i am guessing its half gallon sized and it is purple or in collector terminology SCA and its not too uncommon or unusual i have a few over here not of this exact jar but different ones

 

[nurdreams68]

Yes it is a 1/2 gallon. I was curious as to what are the typical charcteristics of a Crowleytown mason, or the first jars that were made... does anybody know. ? I think i am in possession of several of them, i just want to confirm it.

Crowleytown masons have a completely flat bottom.
They have a squarish shoulder and a sharply angled base.

Redbook # 1773 is attributed to a jar I found and reported.

 

[bottlenutboy]

i think they typically had squared shoulders

here is one in teal : http://antiquebottles.com/fruitjar/fame.html

that is what I thought! I have several of them, NOW do I try to list them on ebay or sell them on here? anybody interested in them?

Withs something thats rare, I would go to an auction house with them.

Ebay is a buyers market unless you have something really special.
What are you asking? You could acution them off here but the market is smaller.
